Odd question, I've searched the Net to no avail.

Is there a minimum age for a passenger on a motorcycle in California?

Sorry I am not sure on the age..but I hear they just passed a law out there that the pillion rider has to be six feet away, because they are afraid the passenger could be a stripper. :

I've never heard of an explicit age requirement.

If they're less than 40 pounds or under 4 years old you might have to put them in a booster seat, though.

If they are less than 40lbs, or under 4 years old, you might need to have your head examined!

Man HERB I don't know what you talkin bout. I do wheelies with my four year old all daaaaa time. He is da perfect weight to help get the front end up. shut man MAMA jus duck tape em to my back bafore we go out fo a ride. My head is just fine.. Sorry Sorry just got done watchin Malibus most wanted wasn't sure what was going on till my wife just kicked me in the head and told me I was showing a gat to the computer screen. Again my humble apologies. What was the subject again. I would call the DMZ/V They know all that worthless stuff.

Not sure if its the same here, but in the UK there is no minimum age/weight requirement. The law states that they must be able to put both feet firmly on the rear footpegs to be allowed to pillion on a bike.

Would think something similar would apply here.

As suggested above, call DMV & see what they say.

No age requirement. They just have to be able to reach the passenger pegs comfortablly, no tippie toes.
